how can a person get into the business side of baseball? (internships,jobs,etc) In other words, how do younger adults get opportunities to work in baseball?

Super tough. I think advance scouting is an interesting spot right now, because you work with players and with numbers. But it actually seems like a decent way is to work in something around baseball and show your skills. If you want to be a quant, get a job with numbers and run numbers on baseball in your spare time. Then you'll have something to show.

Am I wrong to think that Billy Burns seems like a better version of Billy Hamilton?

Eno Sarris

1:12

Nope. Better plate approach, similar issues, has shown better results from left side.

Some of the most hyped pitchers in the latter part of season has been Anderson Espinoza, Jose de Leon, Francis Martes, and Blake Snell. How would you rank these guys?

Eno Sarris

1:12

de Leon, Snell

1:14

Reiss

Are any of the dodgers pitching prospects going to be as good as Syndergaard or Matz?

Eno Sarris

1:15

Urias pretty exciting.

My favorite stat from last year was that as of August the Mets SP had thrown over 2,500 pitches at/above 95 mph. The Phillies SP had thrown 22.

Anderson valley makes a watermelon gose that is perfect for noobs to sours. Not so perfect of up actually like sours

What is Juan Lagares' trade value?

Eno Sarris

1:16

Nothing right now. Has to show D problems were a fluke at very least.

Ryan

1:16

If you had to pick one for the next three yrs: Hamels, Pineda, McCullers, Severino, Matz?

Eno Sarris

1:16

Hamels? Health seems a bit of risk for the other guys. McCullers second because I like his stuff best.

Corey

1:17

Kyle Hendricks increased his k/9 by almost 2 in the second half. Where did this increase come from, did he add a pitch? Doesn't look like a velo increase.

Eno Sarris

1:17

I see a spike in his curve usage, which gets average whiffs, but with two average pitches and two bad ones...

JoeStrange

If you are running the Mets, is now the perfect time to make a play for Cespedes? OF market had dried up, and with Cuddyer retiring, they have extra money available short term.

Eno Sarris

1:18

OF and SP markets still full, absolutely an interesting time to make a move. Or get Desmond for cheap and beef up IF/OF and flexibility.

Sours

1:18

Peekskill puts out a nice simple Sour in Southern NY if the Jersey guy is a North Jersey guy.. Evil Twin has a tart Gose.. SingleCut & Finback out of Queens/Bronx are doing good things too

Eno Sarris

1:18

There you go.

Kristen

Do purely prospect-for-prospect deals ever happen?

Eno Sarris

1:18

Dodgers just did it.

JoeStrange

1:19

Even with all their aging offense, do you think the Yankees can compete for the division next year with that SP? It looks pretty good, with excellent depth.

Eno Sarris

1:19

Yeah they have the no potholes thing actually. And a high variance starting pitching staff. They all stay in one piece, they good.

In an nl only league, given the trades, do I keep Suarez at $11 or do I pay $50 real life dollars to cut him (too complicated to explain the rules)

Eno Sarris

1:20

Keep. They said he's the third baseman now.

1:20

Also, woof.

Bork

Gose for Travis few years back was prospect for prospect. Filled holes for both teams, was kinda neat.

Do you go to Spring Training at all? Wouldn't mind buying you a beer at Cigar City in Tampa.

Eno Sarris

1:21

I spend much of March at Spring Training... in Arizona.

Think Trevor Story will start for Rockies this year? If so, what his numbers will be like?
